With a wet start to the morning, it was a bit touch and go for a while, but the pitches slowly dried out and the games were able to begin. Both teams displayed some great teamwork and supported each other on the field. There were some spectacular catches taken, some fast pitching, and some big hits throughout the day. Well done to the 9/10 team who were undefeated on the day – winning by some very big margins.

A shout out to the Senior Coaches Sam and Dylan who did a terrific job helping the younger students – thank you!

There was a real sense of community at the Boys Basketball day, with several Northside schools attending. The 7/8 and 9/10 teams were both very competitive on the day and displayed great sportsmanship and fair play. The boys worked hard in defence, displayed some great attacking plays and scored some great baskets! It was excellent to see the boys step up and give back by taking on extra duties across the course of the day.

A huge thank you to our Senior Coaches; Josh, Cameron, Malual and Jesse who displayed great enthusiasm and passion for the game. They passed on their expertise and supported the boys all day – an amazing job!
